In short, Dr. Andrea Hui is amazing at what she does.
I had suffered from acne for about 9 years, starting at the age of 14. Despite all the acne regimens, diet changes, home remedies and exercise, I could never achieve clear skin. I then reached a point where I just gave up. I had acne from my temples down to my chin and both cheeks. Worst of all, my skin scars so all marks just stay and darken and it would take layers of make up to cover it up (when I came to see Dr. Hui, I was using liquid AND powder foundation in conjunction with concealer to cover the scars-- that's how bad it was). At the same time, I was hesitant to see a dermatologist because I didn't want to be prescribed Accutane like everyone else (those side effects - no thank you). By random chance, I met Dr. Andrea Hui.
The first thing I told Dr. Hui was "I give up on my skin, you can try." But Dr. Hui took one look at my skin and said, "We're going to clear it up, you just have a slight hormonal problem." From there, I was put on a retinoid cream, spironolactone, aczone gel and a temporary antibiotic. She also advised on best cleanser and moisturizer/sunscreen to use. All this was typed up for me on my "acne treatment plan" so there was no confusion on what I should be doing. I followed it to the last detail. The first month was a little tough as my skin continued to break out. However, by months 2 and 3, I saw DRASTIC improvement. Significantly less acne, scars lightening. I've just completed month 3 and I have had no breakouts for weeks. In fact, the scars are so much lighter, I barely wear any make up at all (if I even decide to wear make-up that day)!
It feels amazing to go outside with a bare face for the first time in 9 years without feeling self-conscious and I have Dr. Hui to thank for that! She listened to my concerns and made a personalized treatment plan. Plus, who can take one look at your face, diagnose you and be 100% right? Very impressed. New York will miss Dr. Hui!
